OPTION OF THE CITY DIRECTLY PROVIDING PUBLIC SWIM PROGRAMS<br />

Qualifications <strong>of</strong> <strong>City</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Sunnyvale</strong><br />

The <strong>City</strong> does not currently have the expertise or the staff to run a full-scale<br />

multi-program, year-round aquatics facility, but does have experience in<br />

developing complex programs and obtaining the appropriate staff to run them.<br />

If the <strong>City</strong> were to directly operate the public swim programs at Fremont pool,<br />

the <strong>City</strong> would need to build its reputation as a full-service aquatics provider<br />

(e.g., pre-competitive, competitive, Masters), since the <strong>City</strong> is currently known<br />

as a provider <strong>of</strong> only recreational aquatics services. From a logistical<br />

standpoint, start-up time would be significant, due to the need to establish job<br />

specifications for key staff, follow Human Resources and <strong>City</strong> protocols, and<br />

the need to build an organizational infrastructure from the ground up.<br />

<strong>City</strong> Start-Up Strategy/Transition Plan<br />

While some programs could be <strong>of</strong>fered immediately, assuming the <strong>City</strong> was able<br />

to hire sufficient lifeguards (e.g., lap swimming, rental agreements with longterm<br />

users), full programming would likely not be available for six months, in<br />

large part due to the need to assemble a staffing team. Participation would<br />

likely be impacted, due to a lapse in service. Staff would initially focus on core<br />

programming, and then would look to add additional programming as staffing<br />

was available.<br />

<strong>City</strong> Participant Fees<br />

The <strong>City</strong> would expect participant fees to be in line with the fees currently<br />

charged at Fremont High School Pool, which are market-based.<br />

<strong>City</strong> Pool Program and Services<br />

Hours <strong>of</strong> operation: 5:00 a.m. – 8:00 p.m. weekdays, 7:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.<br />

weekends. (Attachment C – Sample <strong>City</strong> Schedule). To accommodate<br />

specialized programming, hours may be extended seasonally to 10:00 p.m.<br />

weekdays and to 7:00 p.m. weekends.
